My dream since i was little was to be a model, just like my mother was. People putting me down about it though kinda stopped me, but i decided i think i just wanna go for it.I like work like Hanna beth, audrey kitching, etc. Can anyone give me some tips and pointers, and opinions? http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y4/unforgottenjinx/snapshotone.jpg http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y4/unforgottenjinx/seenlyokay2.jpg http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y4/unforgottenjinx/aboutmewrap.jpg im not done up or posing in these, just ordinary pictures. im 5″3 and 110 lbs, but height wont stop me. i know of petite models. im 17 almost 18 actually. i was just putting my age because i realized that i hadn’t. I can take criticism well actually. & i know not to jump into it. i dont plan to. however if i bother to ever, its not to early to do some research or get a portfolio started. I’ve actually gone to castings before and have gotten call backs, but my mother thought i was to young. And yes, i did ask for opinions. However i didn’t ask for a picture of you, or what people have told you, or how old are you are. We are completley different people.

Answer:
Honestly love, I’m 5’4” and around 107 pounds and yet…i’ve been told i’m not model ‘material’ even though most everyone I know thinks i’m really gorgeous. But if looks are anything to go on, i’m going to assume that you can’t be more than 15, possibly 16 years old. Grow up a little bit first before you throw your body to the fashion demons. ~edit to questionnaire’s last ‘statement’~ Okay then, taking the leap in saying the ‘if looks are anything to go by,’ statement was completely disregarded… Despite you being almost 18 years old…has nothing to do with it. How? Reason being is because I’m almost 19 years old. So in reinforcement of my earlier statement, I stand by it. I still think you should grow up a little first. However, here is my own question: if you are so quick to defy and/or defend against anyone that disagrees with you, why are you asking for someone’s opinion when you are so hell-bent on becoming a model anyway? Not trying to start anything, just an opinion and over-view of your feed back on some comments. Point is, if you can’t take the criticism then don’t ask the question. If you believe you have to, try to prove us wrong and if you do, all the more power to you. Although, that’s what we are here for; to give you OUR opinions with possible facts to back it up. Mine is from experience. If you haven’t guessed, the one’s saying, ‘sure, you’re cute’ are just going by the fact that you are physically attractive and have no experience or actual facts to back it up. If our opinions don’t matter, go ask a modeling recruiter I wish you luck. As a couple of comments above stated: I’m not ‘hating’, in fact, what I’m dishing out isn’t compared to the hellish criticism they dish out at interviews. ~Final Edit~ Obviously I can’t explain anymore because basically what you’ve got here are people telling you that you are pretty. That I can agree with, you are very much so. But I simply posted proof and told you my age to show the similar situations. Although, you missed the point I was trying to get across and honestly, your mom answered that way before you posted this question and got my opinion. Your a really pretty girlie, but I’d still give it some time. I’m Done~
